Road Trip

I just got back in the office from a fantastic trip up to Alaska. VLS enrolls students from Alaska each year – and we have close to 40 alumni in the state. I visited the campuses of Univ of Alaska in Anchorage and Fairbanks and talked with some fantastic prospects who already knew about our Environmental programs.

The most fun was spending time with all our new alums in the Anchorage, Palmer, Cordova and Homer area. Most of them are in judicial clerkships; others are in the PD office, working in Environmental non-profits or public interest positions. I took goody bags with alumni “stuff” – water bottles, pens, post-it note pads, etc. It was like being Santa Claus.

Speaking of . . . I visited the Santa Claus shop at the “real” North Pole, Alaska – too cool 🙂 Of course, I had to buy a tree ornament and t-shirt for the season!

Becky, Kara and Sara are our primarly recruiters this fall – hope you get to talk with one of them at some point. Our complete travel schedule is on the admissions page of the web site.
